Directions: Create three different mixed numbers that will make the equation true by using the digits 1 to 9 at most one time each. You may reuse the same numbers for each of the three mixed numbers. Source: Robert Kaplinsky

Directions: Give an example of two sets of numbers that form identical box plots (also called box-and-whisker plots) but have different mean absolute deviation values. Source: Robert Kaplinsky with help from Pamela Franklin

Directions: Using the digits 1 to 9 at most one time each, fill in the boxes to make the smallest (or largest) sum. Note: This problem’s difficulty can be adjusted by altering the number of digits (boxes), picking smallest or largest, or by picking either a positive, negative, or both. Source: Robert Kaplinsky
